Order with Atlantic British has been placed for throttle body heater kit.

I will let you know how it goes once I replace the part.

Thank you for Buzz for the help.

 

I changed the trotle body heater plate today, the line from the reservoir to the plate broke apparently it is very brittle. got a longer piece of hose to do the connection.

it looks like the leak has stoped.

Thanks Buzz for the info on the replacement part..

 

GARovee - I was out of town last week so sorry for the delayed response, and I appreciate your offer.

But ... in the meantime my flight got in last Friday. Being the observant Rover driver that I am, I decided to check under the hood and when I saw the empty coolant tank, fill it up. For some other great reason I decided to lift the coolant tank to get the coolant down into the block, and totally forgot about the plastic line coming from the radiator - snap - now that provided a perfect reason to use my AAA and take it in to the Shop. They called today and told me I had an external head gasket leak on the left (drivers side) bank rear - so I'm having them replace that as well as fix a few other issues (oh, and flush the radiator).

 

BrokeRover - There are a few very good used parts suppliers around Atlanta if you want to just replace the radiator rather than flush.

Craigslist here is covered with Disco parts - one of the guys is in Smyrna off Windy Hill road, and is great. I got a carpet set and key from him today, and he has several radiators that look almost new at his place.

I think his name was Sean. If you need his #, just reply to this post and I'll put it up.

 

ATL - I'll take that number. I've contacted a few people via craigslist and they never return my email so I stopped looking. If he has some good radiators at a good price, and oh maybe a rear door actuator, okay and the stupid cover for the air filter that keeps breaking ... I may hit him up. Of course if I make it all the way to Smyrna, I might as well take my Glock and have them go through it ....

 

Sean - 404.805.0394. He's off Windy Hill road to the west of Cobb Parkway. Nice guy. He responds to text messages the quickest for some reason though...

And yes, the boys at Glock would be happy to see you. Although I got rid of mine and got the FNP-9 last year. If you're in the market, I'd go test-drive one...

Also, up in Alpharetta off Exit 8 of SR400, there is "Mo" @ alpine auto parts. His # is 678-691-1562. He's a little higher than Sean, but depending on where you live, it might be worth it. I haven't been to see him, mostly because I'm an in-towner, and go outside 285 for 2 reasons only: Vacation and getting paid.
